World Gone Sour

World Gone Sour

XB 360, PS3 2.5 stars out of 4 Few expected a licensed video game based on Sour Patch Kids candy to stand out as a masterpiece, but to its credit, "World Gone Sour" is surprisingly OK, especially for its $5 asking price. Like a warped version of "Toy Story," the game stars a discarded piece of candy who must work its way through a garbage can, a movie theater and other environments in the hopes of eventually getting eaten. The controls could use some more tweaking, and the action gets repetitive, but it's worth a single play-through, especially for the amusingly sarcastic narration of Creed Bratton of "The Office" fame.
